I just checked my web counter, and I have to admit that I was astonished by the stats! Since February 15th, more than 9000 visitors logged on to this weblog, perusing more than 17, 500 different pages!:-)

Many thanks to all of you. It means a lot to me that so many people, from so many different countries, take the time to read my rambling thoughts!:-) I never believed that this blog would ever become so popular.
